About the adventure
Bound Within Tempest Valley is a dark fantasy adventure set in a storm-locked land of ancient ruins and hidden dangers. Those who enter seek glory, knowledge, or survival but few leave unchanged. The campaign emphasizes exploration, perilous trials, and puzzle-driven challenges, where teamwork and creativity matter as much as combat. Each success reveals pieces of a deeper mystery as the valley slowly awakens. Blending tension with discovery, the story rewards curiosity and meaningful choices in a character-driven world where nothing is quite as it seems.

About me
I’m a 26-year-old Dungeon Master who loves creating fun, immersive tabletop experiences. I’m still fairly new to the TTRPG world, but I’ve played in multiple campaigns and currently DM for my friends, this is something I’ve really fallen in love with. I focus on storytelling, creativity, and making sure everyone at the table feels involved and excited to play. My DMing style is collaborative and flexible, and I enjoy adapting to my players’ ideas to create memorable moments. Whether you’re brand new to tabletop games or have years of experience, my goal is to make sure everyone feels welcome and leaves the session having had a great time.

Creating your character
Characters and character art will be created in session zero in Roll20. Stats will be rolled. Starting at level 1. We'll be referring to standard Dungeons and Dragons 5.5e(2024) Rules.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We'll be using Discord for communication and the Roll20 website for visualization. It would help a lot if you have a working mic/headset, if not that's fine(typing in chat is accepted), as long as you can hear me as I will be narrating the entire campaign.
What Jason brings to the table
I will be voice acting for my NPCs and there will be ambient music. There will be a lot of combat. I like to refer to the rules as written, !!!BUT!!! if what you want to do is realistic and sounds balanced "I'll allow it"
Homebrew rules
I have made a few QoL changes to some "upkeep" rules, like not having to worry about travel or character hygiene/nutrition etc... The reason for this is that I want the campaign to be focused on the "what's next" elements rather than the "this again..." elements. For example, you don't need to worry about your character's nourishment as that is a built-in part of the campaign.

Safety
How Jason creates a safe table
I have my own personal favorite safety tool The Trigger Checklist: I communicate with my players at session zero to compile a list of triggers (Public and non-Public). The point of this checklist is so that we can discuss the "Public" triggers with the rest of the players and if any of the "non-Public" triggers appear during a session I can address it before it becomes an issue.
